You get finished with a game and just loved the hell out of it and decided to look at others people's reviews on Youtube to see if anyone else shared your opinion. Then you make the horrible choice of looking at the comments section and being blasted with people saying how horrible the game it, how the review is only being payed off to say it was good, and how people who like this game are retards that deserve nothing but slow painful deaths. You want to look away, but it's like looking at the site of a terrible car crash and you can't bring yourself to do so. Then after your done, you feel depressed and betrayed, how could you let that game convince you it was good when it was lying to you the whole time. Then after a while you play the game again to prove to yourself how terrible it is and find that you like it as much as the first time you played it. Then you get angry at yourself for letting yourself get sucked up into the negativity that the Youtube comments section creates and swear never to let happen again...and then you play another game you really like and you know where this is going. Thus, a viscous cycle is born.
So my question to you my fellow Escapists is how do you react when insane Youtube commentators talk crap about games you like. Do your simply ignore them, try and bring them to reason, or join them in their madness until you snap out of it like I unfortunately do a lot of the time.
